DFW Texas new but HUNGRY investor

[Kelvin J.]

Mornin' BP. I'm new to the site and new to REI but this community has been fantastic already.

Quick background. MD raised, residing in Fort Worth, TX now. USAFA grad, spent several years deploying and flying for the Air Force and now do the same as a deployable contractor. Exploring ways to decrease taxes led me to real estate and it's wealth of other benefits. 

I have been consuming real estate books and BiggerPockets podcasts at a fever pace. I am currently overseas but will be jumping in with both feet upon return to the states. I've set my sites on SFH and small MFH. I'll admit, to start I am searching on the MLS but one of my goals is to learn how to identify and capitalize on off market deals. Easier read in a book than done in person or worse, from the other side of the globe.

I tend to have 3-6 months in between deployments and would like to make some DFW connections from which we could both benefit! In exchange for knowledge and experience I can offer a hell of a work ethic, my own fuel, morning coffees and lunch outings. 

Looking forward to the future!
